Makita introduced its new 75.6 cc back pack commercial blower. The BBX7600 offers a four stroke motor. The new makita back pack blower is EPA Phase II, CARB Tier III Compliant, but still offers commercial grade power. The new blower offers 53% longer run time per tank of fuel over traditional 2-cycle engines. Even though it is a four stroke, it provides quiet operation by using a large muffler, 99.1 db operation.
The powerful 75.6 cc commercial duty 4 stroke engine requires no fuel mix, and will deliver 80 minutes of continous operation on a 64 oz. fuel tank. This blower can reach speeds of 195 mph and a maximum air air volume of 526 cubic feet per minute. This unit weights only 22.6 lbs and has a new handle grip located on the tube with a 4″ adjustable position.
Makita states this has a lower noise, lower maintenance, lower oil consumption and lower gas consumption compared to all in its class.
